Trying to use stick.

The effort is torturous.

Shoot me in the face.

Great_Dark_Hero:
Nowadays, I've been mostly playing KOF with a old pals from school who played 98 on a religious basis, along with German players and soldiers. I've also recently picked up both Daimon and Elisabeth (after getting pass her execution barrier. I find her juggle combos to be fun to do now)!

Cynical:
Jesus christ, after tonight's session, I really have no clue what the fuck is wrong with me.

There's literally NO OTHER PERSON with a record anything like mine (hundreds of games and a winrate of less than 10%). 

Someone literally had an 0-2 record before facing me, picked triple-random against me all 16 games we played, and bodied me 16 fucking times, with several being OCVs.  Later, someone who has 20 games total to his name just mashes buttons against me and absolutely bodies me about 10 times in a row.  In other words, you can literally sit ANYONE IN THE WORLD in front of the game for the first time, have them mash buttons, and they'll beat me 100% guaranteed.

So fucking infuriated at myself right now.  No idea what the hell is wrong with me that I take about 10 times the amount of time as anyone else to reach even the lowest of "not completely shit" levels, but this kind of performance is completely unacceptable.

My rust showed, I was making critical drops and not maximizing on many opportunities. Still, somehow I managed to place 7th overall (tied with 1 other, out of 34 players).

Two words can sum up my final match, "I believed."

The tournament also finally convinced me (though I had been resisting up til this point) that I need to replace Robert. The only question is, what character should I pick instead?

Thanks for posting this. I just learned some new stuff I can try with Kula.  :)

I feel like I'm having trouble adapting correctly to the offense of KOFXIV. Maybe its the general speed of the game or something that makes me feel that I am reacting too slowly to things or I am mashing when I am shouldn't. I get frame trapped and punished too much when I'm offensive & I get impatient on defense and hit buttons when I should not. I also tend to drop certain confirms or combos way too much and I am having trouble getting those down solid in tense gameplay.

I need to get my execution down, read my opponents better by being more aware and using deductive and inductive reasoning, and having a stronger awareness.
